Appraisal of Works by Sorolla
Although it may seem obvious, a painting is worth what it should cost. Every artist has various periods and cases. For this reason, poor, average, good, excellent, and superior works exist for each artist. This will determine the price; so, one piece could cost three, four, or five times more than another seemingly similar piece.
There are several factors that influence the appraisal of a work:
- Rarity or uniqueness
- Condition or state of preservation
- Provenance or origin (previous owners, exhibitions in museums)
- Trajectory of the artist
- Technique employed
- Period
- Non-artistic aspects (for example, the supports)
